Taught by Dr. Bennett

Introduction to Therapeutic Ketamine for PatientsIn this one hour talk, Dr. Bennett will talk about the use of ketamine to treat depression. She will cover the mechanisms of action, the routes of administration, various dosing strategies, inclusion criteria for treatment (who makes a good candidate), and exclusion criteria for treatment (who is not a good candidate for therapeutic ketamine). This talk is free and open to the public; it is geared toward patients who are currently experiencing severe depression, and their families.

Introduction to Therapeutic Ketamine for CliniciansThis presentation is geared toward clinicians who are thinking about adding ketamine services to their practices. Dr. Bennett will describe the various ways that ketamine can be used in a psychiatry or psychotherapy practice, and will include information on ROA, dose, indications and contraindications, side effects, and legal considerations. This is an introductory level presentation for medical and/or mental health professionals; it is not a comprehensive training.

Psychedelic Ketamine JourneysKetamine is a highly dissociative, psychedelic and/or visionary medicine. What if we embrace the psychedelic component instead of avoiding it? Is there any value in having safe psychedelic experience (in a contained medical environment)? Dr. Bennett will discuss these questions in this presentation. She will also talk about patient selection (many people are not an appropriate candidate for this treatment approach), dose, frequency, setting, and the importance of the therapeutic container for working in this dose range. She will end by sharing common themes, experiences, and imagery from psychedelic ketamine journeys in a clinical context.
